Madopar CR
Has anyone had any experience with this? How does it compare with normal Madopar and would it be useful for bedtime?

Help Dosing Sinemet Plus DESPERATE
My 96 yr old mum is undermedicated. She has been "weak" for the last year at least. Everyone wants to accept it as old age. My mum has always been STRONG. She missed a neurologist appointment about 8 months ago because she was too weak to go. Finally saw him in September. He increased her Sinemet

Mucuna vs Sinemet
The doc increased my dosage from 1 to 1 1/2 pills of Sinemet three times a day. . I start taking mucuna pruriens to lower dose of sinemet instead of increasing the sinemet dosage. Does anyone have a suggested dosage of mucuna pruriens to supplement 1 pill of sinemet 25/100 three times a day, in hopes

PD and the microbiome - WinnieThePoos Christmas update
If you only knew how superstitious I am, and how wary of commentators curse. Still, man up Winnie, and tell it as it is Last night Sue and I went to the PMU - our local bar where our ex-pat friends hang out. I explained that my CBD oils, which I ordered more than 3 weeks ago, had at last arrived -

pd and versed
I have an upcoming tooth extraction. The periodontist will be using Versed as an anesthetic/tranquilizer. Does anyone have any experience of negative interactions with sinemet or other contraindications? Thanks.

Off label medication - how to choose
Ian Frizzels recent vlog about his MP's intervention regarding the prescription for Exanatide inspired this post. I hope he contributes. It's unashamedly selfish. Having tried to establish DIP on first diagnosis, I switched to research for disease modifying "new hopes" after the DATscan. My dilemma

Blepharospasm - drug induced

The condition is gradually getting worse and is very debilitating. Sinemet doesn't offer me very long on

U.S. TV show Chicago Med.
If you watch it and haven't seen the Dec 5th episode, stop reading :) A lady was brought in the ER after stabbing an intruder in her home. Long story short, it was her husband who she she didn't recognize. Upon farther investigation it was discovered she was on a medicine that was a Dopamine ,not

Which therapy helped you the most?
Can people say which of these helped them the most? I don't think there's an option for adding a poll. Dopamine agonists: These are most often the first medicines used to treat RLS. These drugs, including pramipexole (Mirapex), rotigotine (Neupro), and ropinirole (Requip), act like the neurotransmitter

Thiamine and dyskinesia
I have been taking Sinemet for 8 years and have terrible dyskinesia on the lowest dose. I’ve ordered injectable thiamine but can’t see anything about it stopping dyskinesia.

Mucuna Pruriens dosage
My husband reported to his neurologist at his annual appointment that his worst symptom was not being able to talk/throat congestion. The neurologist said this is from too much sinemet, so the doc lowered his dosage from 1 1/2 pills of 25/100 twice a day and 1 pill once a day to 1 pill three times a

Mucuna Sleepiness?
I have a question for you folks. I am taking 1 tsp of 15% Mucuna in a cup of green tea and it puts me to sleep shortly after. This happens whether I just had a good nights sleep, midday or before bed. I also take Sinemet 25/100 3x/day. Does Mucuna affect anyone else like that? Any thoughts or suggestions

Rytary coverage by Insurance
This post is the follow up post about my dad's tremors. He is 83, tried 3 different medications without any luck. Monday had an appointment with neuro and was prescribed Rytary. So, his pharmacy calls and says that Medicare does not cover this medication. We had to fill out a special form for a group
